I don't understand the question. If you want program 2 to look like program 1, you can edit program 2 and change it to look like program 1. But why not just use program 1? It already looks like program 1. In an earlier post, you even pointed out that there is just a single, three line difference between the two programs: [quote] 1. The only difference between both the programs the difference are just the below lines. newdata = '64000101057804'.decode('hex') and newdata = "" newdata = '64000101057804' newdata.decode('hex') [end quote] So you select the three lines which don't work in your editor, hit DELETE, then type the one line which does work. If you want to understand WHY the three lines don't work, add "print newdata" to the end: newdata = "" newdata = '64000101057804' newdata.decode('hex') print newdata If you still don't understand what is going on, try this example instead: x = 0 x = 999 x + 1 print x versus: x = 999 x = x + 1 print x or even better: x = 999 + 1 print x -- Steve “Cheer up,” they said, “things could be worse.” So I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
